EcoSys Version
9.1

Starting with 9.0, EcoSys supports Concurrent Licensing in addition to Named User Licensing.

A Concurrent User License is a shared license that can be leased by a user upon login. It can be subsequently returned during session logout/session expiry. A Named User License is a license which is reserved exclusively for a given user. By default, all users use Concurrent Licensing.

A new license file is required even if concurrent licensing is not utilized. Contact epp90compatiblelicenserequest.ecosys.ppm@hexagon.com for a new license file.

To configure a user for Named Licensing, rather than using the default Concurrent Licensing:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Core Admin > Users and Security > Users and Security > SECURITY tab. Or Navigate to Admin > Core Admin> Users and Security > Maintain Users.

  2. In the SECURITY tab, enable the option Named Licensed User for a particular user.
